"It would have been great to have him up this week," Manusky said after
Thursday's practice. "The next guy's got to stand up and go out there and

The four-time Pro Bowler, who leads the Colts with five sacks this season,
injured his knee late in the Colts' 30-27 victory over Green Bay on Sunday.

Mathis is the second Colts' player in as many days to be sidelined with a knee
injury after interim coach Bruce Arians announced Wednesday that running back
Donald Brown will miss the next 2-3 weeks due to knee surgery.

Fellow linebacker Dwight Freeney (knee) was a full participant in practice
Thursday after sitting out the previous day, while cornerback Vontae Davis
(ankle) and linebacker Pat Angerer (foot) each missed the last two practice
sessions.
